CASology #267

What do you think of when you see the word "BIG"?  That's the cue word for CASology this week.  My first thought was elephant but several others also had that idea so I kept thinking.  Ocean.  What is bigger than the ocean?

I had a panel that already had some blue Distress Ink that I cut with a deckled border die from My Craft Spot (closed.)  I spritzed the seaweed from MFT's A Sea Life and lifted some of the color.  Once I stamped the sentiment in DOX Broken China I thought it needed a little more seaweed in that color.   You can barely see them but there are some bubbles coming from the fish.

Thanks for dropping by.  I love it when you do.

Just Us Girls #387 - Word Week

It's Word Week at Just Us Girls and Nancy has chosen Sea.

I recently had to make a seaside card for another challenge that I filled with shells but went an entirely different way with this one using the same stamp set from MFT called Sea Life.

I used Distress Oxide for the background adding some misting and a bubble stamp dipped in water. The fish and seaweed were colored with Distress Ink markers directly on the stamp and then misted.  Again the "what sentiment do I use?" cropped up until I saw this one on the MFT Polynesian Paradise set and thought it was rather cute.

The Design Team has some wonderful sea inspired cards for you to see. Check them out and then make a card of your own.  You may be our next Chic of the Week.
